The Tonami Tulip Fair (となみチューリップフェア) is an annual event held in Tonami City, Toyama Prefecture, Japan, usually during the months of April and May. The fair showcases over 2 million tulips of more than 600 varieties, which are planted in various locations throughout the city, such as parks, fields, and roadsides.
The Tonami Tulip Fair is one of the largest tulip festivals in Japan, and attracts thousands of visitors every year from all over the country and abroad. During the fair, visitors can enjoy strolling through the tulip fields, taking photos, and participating in various events and activities, such as tulip picking, tulip bulb planting, and tulip-themed craft workshops.
